SORRY GUYS, I THINK THIS CLASS WAS TOO BIG A JUMP FOR YOU TODAY, I SHOULD HAVE STARTED YOU OFF WITH SOMETHING MORE BASIC WHEN LEARNING COLOUR SHAPES
ABOVE, IT IS EASIER TO SEE TONE WHEN TRANSLATED IN BLACK AND WHITE, ALSO SEEING COLOUR AND TONE SHAPES REQUIRES YOU TO EXAGGERATE AND SIMPLIFY WHAT IT IS YOU ARE SEEING, WHICH IS NOT EASY.
PERHAPS IT IS A LITTLE EASIER TO THINK OF THE SHADOW ON THE BALL AND THE TABLE AS 1 TONE SHAPE, WHICH WOULD BE 1 COLOUR SHAPE IF IT WERE IN COLOUR.
PLEASE HAVE A PRACTISE PAINTING OR DRAWING THIS IN OVER HALF TERM, IN GREY OR 1 COLOUR.
DO A CLEAR WASH OVER THE WHOLE OF THE BALL AND IT'S SHADOW, AND ADD THE PIGMENT TO THE SHADOW AND THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE BALL ONLY, ALLOWING THE PIGMENT TO HAVE A SOFT EDGE ON THE BALL.
BELOW IS AN EXAMPLE OF A COLOUR SHAPE WHICH ENCOMPASSES ALL OF THE GREEN FOLIAGE ON THE PLANT
THE BACKGROUND COLOUR IDENTIFIES THE WHITE OF THE FLOWERS IN WATERCOLOUR ON THE RIGHT, WHICH IS THE WHITE OF THE PAPER IN THE PAINTING, BUT WHEN DRAWN ON COLOURED PAPER WE CAN ADD THE WHITE TO MAKE IT STAND OUT
